World Championship (2023): Nepo - Ding
Compiled by plerranov
--*--

Magnus Carlsen declined to defend his title and so the world championship is between the winner of the 2022 FIDE Candidates tournament, Ian Nepomniachtchi (age: 32 years) from Russia, and the runner-up Ding Liren (age: 30 years) from China. Nepomniachtchi scored +5 -0 =9 while Ding scored +4 -2 =8 in the tournament against a field consisting of Teimour Radjabov (AZE), Hikaru Nakamura (USA), Fabiano Caruana (USA), Alireza Firouzja (IRN), Richard Rapport (HUN), and Jan-Krzysztof Duda (POL). Nepomniachtchi previously lost to Magnus Carlsen in the 2021 World Championship. The present match will take place in Astana, Kazakhstan from April 9 to April 30 and will consist of 14 games, plus tiebreaks if required.
